He is the only one who stayed in the sport and became a professional. In his childhood, this hockey player was always a fan of the Detroit Red Wings club, as there were many legendary Russian players in the team.

Career in Super League

In 2008, Kutuzov signed a contract with Nizhnekamsk Neftekhimik. But he never managed to gain a foothold in this club. He played for Nizhnekamsk only four games, and then went to play for the Novosibirsk "Siberia".

In this club, Alexander was the leader of the defense. Coaching staff trusted him with a place in the composition at the most crucial moments. In this team, Alexander Viktorovich Kutuzov spent six seasons. Longer Alexander in his career was not in any club.

Continuation of career

In the season 2011-2012 he played four games for the Moscow "Dynamo". There Alexander came before the playoff series. The Moscow "Dynamo" decided to strengthen important matches before becoming a reliable defender. Kutuzov was an ideal candidate for this vacancy.

Club "Siberia", which previously played this hockey player, in a series of playoffs did not hit. About the opportunity to go for important games in the "Dynamo" Alexander said sports director of this Moscow club Kupriyanov. Kutuzov was pleased with this opportunity, since he did not want to miss the most interesting stage of the championship.

In addition to the club "Dynamo", many favorites of the tournament wanted to strengthen this defender. But their proposals came later. In the season 2014-2015 he became a player of the Ufa "Salavat Yulaev". This season, Kutuzov played for the Ufa team sixty games and scored twenty points.

Going to "CSKA"

The following year, Alexander Kutuzov (hockey player) moved to the Moscow "CSKA". Many hockey experts did not understand how a powerful and tenacious defender will play in such a fast and technical team. But Kutuzov showed his high level of play. But then the club put him on the bounce list.

This meant that he could move to any other team within three days. Despite the high class of the game, there was no demand for it. The reason for this is the huge salary of the athlete, who this agent was beaten out by this defender. In addition, Alexander Kutuzov received a severe injury in the regular season, which later did not allow him to reach the previous level of the game.

But then the situation was resolved, and this player again began to play for "CSKA". He re-signed a contract with a lower salary. In this Moscow club he is playing at the moment.
